Sinfonia in D Minor

SKU: CA.3230311

ISBN 9790007211776. Key: D minor. Language: all languages.

W. F. Bach's sinfonias were composed largely during his tenure in Dresden (1733-1746). They are contributions to a new and scarcely formed genre which was also preoccupying other young composers at that same time. In contrast to the capricious, humorous sinfonias BR-WFB C 1-6, the two-movement Sinfonia in D minor (C 7) is an unusually serious and compactly worked-out piece. The sinfonia belongs to an extensive repertoire of similar orchestral works which were performed as instrumental graduals during the celebration of the Mass in the Catholic Court Church in Dresden. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3230300.

Sinfonia and Caprice is comprised of two contrasting sections. Both sections are characterised by the arrangement of the eight voices into two four-part groups that play in dialogue with each other.The first, slow movement is a Sinfonia in the baroque sense?a majestic opening work. With its dotted rhythms and semiquaver runs, the movement is reminiscent of a French overture. The fast second movement, the Caprice, features an almost unbroken galloping rhythm. In this section an energetic main theme in a minor key plays in alternation with a lyrical subsidiary major theme. The work closes with a triumphant fanfare.

Het werk Sinfonia and Caprice bestaat uit twee contrasterende gedeelten. Het arrangement van beide delen wordt gekenmerkt door de verdeling van de acht partijen in twee groepen van vier, die in dialoog met elkaar spelen.Het eerste, langzame deel is een majestueuze sinfonia in barokke sfeer. Met zijn gepunteerde ritmes en loopjes van zestiende noten doet dit deel denken aan een Franse ouverture. Het snelle twee deel, de caprice, omvat een bijna onafgebroken galopritme. In dit deel wordt een energiek hoofdthema in mineur afgewisseld door een lyrisch ondergeschikt thema in majeur. De compositie wordt afgesloten met een glorierijke fanfare.

Sinfonia and Caprice besteht aus zwei kontrastierenden Teilen. Typisch für beide Teile ist die Aufteilung der acht Stimmen in zwei vierstimmige Gruppen, die miteinander im Dialog stehen.Der erste, langsame Satz ist eine Sinfonia im barocken Sinne, also ein majestätisches Eröffnungsstück. Mit seinen punktierten Rhythmen und Sechzehntelfolgen erinnert der Satz im Charakter an eine französische Ouvertüre. Der schnelle zweite Teil, die Caprice, weist einen fast unablässig durchlaufenden Galopp-Rhythmus auf. In diesem Satz wechselt sich ein markiertes Hauptthema in Moll mit einem lyrischen Seitenthema in Dur ab. Das Werk endet mit einem fanfarenartigen,triumphalen Schluss.

Sinfonia and Caprice se compose de deux parties contrastées. Celles-ci se caractérisent, lâ??une comme lâ??autre, par lâ??arrangement des huit voix en deux groupes de quatre qui jouent en dialogue.Le premier mouvement est une sinfonia au sens baroque du terme - une introduction lente et majestueuse. Avec ses rythmes pointés et ses lignes en doubles croches, ce mouvement fait penser une ouverture française. Le second mouvement, un caprice rapide, se distingue par un rythme galopant presque ininterrompu. Le thème principal en mineur est plutôt déterminé, alors quâ??un second thème lyrique en majeur se fait entendre en alternance. Lâ???uvre sâ??achèvesur une fanfare triomphante.

Sonata 5, in A major, is the only work in the set to feature the ‘classic’ three-movement design in its symmetrical Fast–Slow–Fast configuration. Its opening Vivace makes considerable demands on the flautist’s technique, and the accompanist, too, has some lively interventions. A short Andante, in A minor, recaptures the style of the slow movement of an operatic sinfonia. High spirits return in the concluding Allegro comodo, which manages to be frothy and substantial at the same time. Sonata 6 is in G minor, traditionally a key for serious utterances. Its muscular opening Largo packs in a wealth of interesting rhythmic designs and articulations for the flautist. The influence of violinistic style is clearly seen in the Allegro that follows. The finale is composite: its ‘frame’ is an Affettuoso in minuet rhythm, but its ‘core’ is a Poco Allegro in G major with the character of a second minuet. Despite its outward charm, this movement retains much of the heft of the first two movements.

This festival arrangement of Electric Sinfonia allows students from your entire strings program to play together! The set includes the required grade 2.5 parts along with easier grade 1 parts and a very easy grade ½ level, which uses only pizzicato. In a modal A minor, the piece has hints of rock music and a white-hot intensity that runs through the entire work. Perfect for building confidence - the individual parts are quite easy to play, but all together as a group... sensational!
